Well, I wouldn't do that that trade, but it's not totally absurd. Izzy does have a lot of saves. Rollins has been struggling. He was actually dropped in a public league I was in. I scooped him up and he's been heating up lately.

Isringhausen is really unpredictable right now though. He keeps racking up saves. He should have even more. LaRussa will probably remain pretty loyal to the guy I'd imagine, that's just how he is, even if every Cards fan in America starts screaming for Wainwright. Saves are a valuable commodity.

I don't like it. Sizemore is the best player in the deal and JRoll is the second best player in the deal. Rookies are still rookies and closers' shelf lives keep getting shorter and shorter. Plus how many saves is Izzy going to get with Carp and Phat Al on the DL?

That trade should never have been vetoed. That is one reason I hate the veto rule. People veto trades based on whether or not it hurts their chances, not whether or not the trade is fair. SCREW YOU VETO LOVING, TREE HUGGING, NUT CRACKING, LEFT WING LIBERAL NUTCASES!!!

I don't think the trade was so bad that it should have been vetoed personally. I agree with Damark....it was vetoed because other owner's decided it would hurt their chances. Maybe the guy is very high on Hanley Ramirez....who are you to say he's wrong? Rollins hasn't been very good this year, and Izzy has a bunch of saves.
